May 6, 2026 - In a fresh round of attacks on the BJP, Rahul Gandhi has accused the Haryana government of being a “regime of infiltrators,” continuing his campaign against the ruling party. The Congress leader took to social media, alleging that the BJP’s hold on the state government is based on manipulation and “vote theft,” a charge that has been central to his criticisms of the party’s tactics. Gandhi’s remarks are the latest salvo in his ongoing battle with the BJP as the 2026 elections draw nearer. He reiterated his stance that the BJP has resorted to unethical practices to win elections, accusing the party of allowing external elements to infiltrate the political system in Haryana. The Congress leader’s accusations aim to undermine the credibility of the BJP-led government and rally opposition supporters ahead of the upcoming polls. This accusation comes at a time when political tension is at a high in Haryana, as both major parties, BJP and Congress, intensify their campaigning and seek to consolidate their power. Rahul Gandhi’s statement is likely to further fuel the ongoing political rivalry, as both sides continue to jockey for political dominance in the state.

DOJ footage shows missed security dog alerts before shooting at WHCD A newly released video from the Justice Department has uncovered crucial details about the attempted shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner (WHCD). The footage reveals that a security dog alerted to Cole Tomas Allen’s presence twice, but these warnings went unnoticed, allowing the suspect to fire at a Secret Service officer before being detained. The video, shared by US Attorney Jeanine Pirro on social media platform X, shows Allen walking through the Hilton Hotel the night before the attack. In a chilling moment, the security dog reacts to Allen as he passes, signaling potential danger. However, despite these two distinct alerts, the handler fails to acknowledge the dog's warning, allowing Allen to continue his movement through the hotel. The footage captures the suspect armed with a shotgun, heading toward a security checkpoint where he shoots a Secret Service officer. The video highlights how Allen was moving through the hotel, appearing to “case the area” before the shooting. He can be seen walking through corridors and even passing through a gym in the hours before the more dramatic scene. The footage reveals Allen approaching the magnetometer checkpoint, where he charges past uniformed officers and agents, carrying a long-barrelled firearm. In a slow-motion clip of the video, a Secret Service agent fires three times at Allen, although police have confirmed that Allen was not shot. Instead, Allen was tackled and detained after a brief struggle with security personnel. The officer who was shot survived the attack, thanks to the protection provided by his ballistic vest. Pirro, in her statement, clarified that there is no evidence that friendly fire caused the shooting. She emphasized that the footage had already been provided to the US District Court for further legal action. Allen, a 31-year-old from California, has been charged with attempting to assassinate the president. If convicted, he faces up to life in prison. This latest video offers crucial insight into the incident, showing the missed warnings and the sequence of events that allowed the shooter to carry out the attack.
